About this study

Official title: Performance and Tolerability of a New Medical Device Coating Gel for the Temporary Relief of Teething Symptoms: a Randomized, Open Label, Parallel-group, Multicentre Study

Medical device study for efficacy and tolerability of a HA gel in the management of teething symptoms

Read the detailed description

Due to the potential toxicity that can result from the use of topical anesthetics to relieve the symptoms associated with gingival inflammatory conditions or gums trauma in infant, recently, products containing Hyaluronic Acid (HA) have been marketed in Europe. In particular, Bioplax Limited is developing several high molecular weight HA medical devices characterized by the absence of preservatives, alcohol and dyes; therefore, the administration of these products in infants is safe and can help creating a natural protective layer on the gingival tissue. In previous clinical trials with these high molecular weight HA medical devices it was noted a periodontal tissue/fluid balance with accelerated healing and repair properties that could be of interest either for accelerating the wound healing process or for treating the complex physical symptoms (i.e. soreness and swelling of gums, crying, sleeplessness) related to the teething in infants. These data were confirmed by a recent pilot study on 18 infants suffering by teething where the two formulation of the tested high molecular weight HA medical device evidenced, at the end of treatment period, a statistically significant reduction of pain, swelling, gingival rush, hyper-salivation and redness, from baseline.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing HA BPX V3.3 and Dentinox-Gel N in people with Tooth Disease, run by Opera CRO, a TIGERMED Group Company.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 10 inclusion and 8 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 May 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

changes in gingival swelling (time frame: 3 days). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 17 May 2018.
